For programming information, see the Wired System Programming Guide For further installation information, see the Wired RAK Application Sheet 1WhatistheWMR-DLI? TheWMR-DLIisamulti-roomDALIcontroller used in a DALI addressable network. The Room grouping feature on the WMR-DLI enables up to 64 ballasts to be grouped with a maximum limit of 16 Rooms. TheWMR-DLIisfittedwithanRJ11socketforconnectiontoa RAK-LINK or RAK-STAR. It can also be connected to the Wired network using the punch-down connections on the daughterboard with a CAT5 or CAT6 cable. OnceconfiguredinRasoft Pro, The WMR-DLI can be controlled from the Wired network with Rako Wired controllers such as the WCM, WK-EOS,WK-MOD,WK-PIR,WAVFR,andWAVMI. WhenusedwithcompatibleDT6orDT8ballasts,theWMR-DLIcan beusedforRGBWandcolour-tunableLEDs. 2Connections TheWMR-DLIhastwowaysofconnectingtothe Rako Wired network, via the daughterboard using a CAT5/CAT6,orvia the RJ11 port using an RJ11 cable. TheRJ11connection can connect directly to a RAK-LINK, or Wired accessories such as the WK-CONNECT,WK-CONNECTandWP-CON. TheDALIcontrol input is used to connect the DALI control cables which run to the DALI ballasts. TheWMR-DLIcomeswitha12VDCpowersupply, this must be connected to the 12V DC port for the WMR-DLItofunction. WMR-DLI Manual Version 1.0.0

3Installing the WMR-DLI POWERSHOULDBEISOLATEDTHROUGHOUTTHEINSTALLATIONPROCESS STEP1 Fix the back section of the WMR-DLItothewallusingthe fixing points. NB Ensure there is a mains plug socket within 0.5M of the unit for the WMR-DLIpowersupply. STEP2 Connect the power supply which is supplied with the WMR-DLI. STEP3 Connect the DALI control cable which runs to the DALI ballasts. WMR-DLI Manual Version 1.0.0

STEP4 Connect to the Rako Wired Network via the RJ11 port or the daughterboard. If the daughterboard is used, it is essential to set the correct termination jumpers, see Terminating the WMR-DLI for more information. 4Terminating the WMR-DLI Dependingontheposition of the WMR-DLI in the Rako Wired network, the termination required will be one of the following: NoTerm:BothJumpersremoved UsedwhentheWMR-DLIisnotattheendofline.Thisisusuallyidentifiable by two cables being punched down to the WMR-DLI.

5Checksbeforeprogramming Before the WMR-DLI is programmed, check the following: - All DALI ballasts to be commissioned are connected to the WMR-DLI - ThePSUisconnectedandpowered,toconfirmthis,theonboardredLEDwill illuminate. NB TheDALIpowersupplyisisolated from the rest of the board which is powered by the Rako Wired network. NB If the 12V PSU is connected and powered and the onboard LED is not illuminated, removetheDALIconnections, if the LED illuminates there is likely an issue on the DALI network. - Connected luminaires turn on and off via the override button on the WMR-DLI - TheWMR-DLIisconnectedtotheRakoWirednetworkviatheRJ11or daughterboard, LED 2 will illuminate. For further information on the WMR-DLI LEDs, see Appendix 3 - LED States. WMR-DLI Manual Version 1.0.0

6AddingtheWMR-DLIasadevice Before the WMR-DLI can assign DLI ballasts, it needs to beaddedasaDeviceinRasoftPro. Thefollowing steps assume: - AProject File has been created. - Roomshavebeencreated. - TheHUBhasbeenconfigured. - TheChannels in the Rooms have been labelled. If the above has not been done, refer to the Wired System Programming Guide before continuing. - Put the WMR-DLI into Setup Mode by pressing and holding the setup button on the unit for 3-4 seconds. - ChoosetheWMR-DLIname,andselect“Next”.

7WMR-DLISetup OncetheWMR-DLIhasbeenaddedasaDevice,itrequiresfurthersetuptoassignballasts short addresses and arrange them into their respective Rooms and Channels. 7.1 Assigning ballasts a short address Each DALI ballast requires a unique short address so that it can be communicated with individually, multiple short addresses can be grouped into a maximum of 16 Rooms. There are three options on the WMR-DLI setup page. 7.2 Force Re-address Anyshort addresses on DALI ballasts are replaced with new short addresses, this is typically used on new systems. 7.3 Automatically Re-address Will only assign short addresses to DALI ballasts that do not have one, this is used on existing systems when additional DALI ballasts have been added and the preservation of the short addresses on existing ballasts is required. 7.4 Store Auto Heal Data After all of the DALI ballasts have been commissioned, use this feature to store all DALI data (Groupings, scenes and fade-rates etc). If a ballast is replaced the data for the replaced ballast will be re-uploaded. WMR-DLI Manual Version 1.0.0
Page 10
7.5 Assigning Short Addresses - Select the WMR-DLI in the “Device List” to open the “Device Editor” - Select the “DLI Setup” tab - Select “Force Re-address” which will assign short addresses to all connected DALI ballasts. NB If DALI ballasts have been added to an existing DALI network, select "Automatically Re-Address" which will only assign short addresses to DALI ballasts with no short address. - TheDALIballast outputs will flash once individually when short addresses are being assigned, once all DALI ballasts have been given a short address, a window will appear saying how many ballasts have been assigned, this should match the number of ballasts which are connected to the WMR-DLI. NB Duetosomeballasts having multiple short addresses for various outputs, there may bemoreshortaddresses than there are ballasts. - Oncetheballasts have been assigned a short address and there are no more ballasts found, a confirmation message will show how many ballasts have been found.

8MappingandGrouping OncetheWMR-DLIhasassignedashortaddresstoallconnectedDALIballasts, they must beassigned to their relevant Rooms via the Circuits Mapping page. Ballasts are given group numbers unique to each Rako Room, the first Room to be selected from the Room dropdown will be given group 0, the second Room Group 1 and so on. Thediagrams demonstrate how DALI ballasts may be grouped and what this looks like in Rasoft Pro. Diagram demonstration of how ballasts are grouped together. Diagram demonstration of how ballasts are grouped in Rasoft Pro via the DLI Mapping page. Colours will not show in Rasoft Pro. WMR-DLI Manual Version 1.0.0

9Ballast Configuration Additional configuration is available via the Ballast Configuration menu once the DALI ballasts have been assigned short addresses. 9.1 Selecting ballasts Before any of the settings below can be set on the DALI ballasts, the short address of the DALI ballast must be selected, if the settings apply to all DALI ballasts, then select “Broadcast (all ballasts)” Configurations will apply to all ballasts Configurations will apply to ballast assigned short address 0 10Ballast Options 10.1 Fade Time Set how long it takes the light to reach full brightness from off, 3 seconds is recommended. 10.2 Fade Rate Thespeedofdimmingwhenusingthe"FadeUp"or "FadeDown"controls.

10.3 Minimum Level Thelowest level the light can reach, setting the minimum level >0 will result in the light not switching off. 10.4 Maximum Level Thebrightest level the light can reach, setting the maximum level to <0 will result in the light not switching on. 10.5 Power On Level Thedefault light level when power is restored to the system. 10.6 System Failure Level If the DALI signal is lost, the light level will default to this setting. 10.7 Read Values Reads the current configuration of the selected ballast. 11Linear and Exponential Dimming (DT6) For DT6 DALI ballast, there are two options for dimming, Linear and Exponential. 11.1 Linear Dimming (Recommended) Equally divides 0-255 levels across 0-100%. 11.2 Exponential Dimming Within the lower dimming range, the ballast's influence on light output evolves gradually, within the higher dimming signal range, its impact on lighting effects shifts more rapidly.
